(Oct 02, 2025)

“Republicans control both chambers in Congress and the White House. The GOP is fully responsible for this shutdown.

Kinkead: Lawmakers must lead with dignity in debate

(Oct 02, 2025)

“As lawmakers, we must never lose sight of our responsibility to lower the temperature around heated disagreements. Political violence is a real and growing threat in our country and when any elected official fails to control their behavior, they, as leaders within their community, give permission to others to do the same – or worse.

“If we are truly committed to lowering recidivism in the Commonwealth, then the state investing in setting returning citizens up for success is common sense,” Kinkead, D-Allegheny, said. “If we are unwilling to help these folks get basic documents that many of us take for granted, like IDs and work permits, then we also must admit to our constituents that we do not actually care about preventing crime. Paying for IDs now saves us from paying for re-incarceration later.” Read more

Emily Kinkead, who co-hosted a PA House Majority Policy Committee roundtable on the airport project and represents portions of Allegheny County. “The exciting part of this project is that it will not only create an estimated 300 construction jobs to build their plant adjacent to the airport, but it will also generate more than 600 permanent jobs to manufacture linear generators that can run on numerous gas fuels without flame or spark—and with zero carbon emissions.” Read more
